• W636893761 abstract "Since July 2006, the New York City Department of Transportation has been aggressively building out the on-street bicycle network in a 3-year, 200-mile expansion program to improve the safety, convenience and attractiveness of cycling. The aim is to make bicycling a viable choice for all New Yorkers. This unprecedented network expansion has provided a unique opportunity to develop new and robust bicycle lane design treatments and to advance the profession of bicycle and pedestrian friendly street design. One of the most innovative projects undertaken to date is the Ninth Avenue Bicycle Path and Complete Street project. The project created what we believe is the first urban on-street parking- and signal-protected bicycle facility in the United States. It is located on a wide avenue in Manhattan that had previously been a motor vehicle dominated thoroughfare. In fall 2007, NYCDOT implemented the completely redesigned avenue with a bicycle path between the parking lane and sidewalk (see Figure 1). The project is a “complete street” design on Ninth Avenue in Manhattan, located within the most dense, active and mixed-use central business district in the country. The primary goal of the project was to create a street that would accommodate all users, not simply motorists. Major project elements included shortening the pedestrian crossing distance of this 70 foot-wide avenue and protecting the bicycle path from vehicular incursion, which has been an ongoing problem with traditional on-street bicycle lanes in Manhattan. These incursions mean traditional bike lanes in these contexts do not succeed in the goal of encouraging cycling as a utilitarian mode of transportation. To make the improvements quickly, the project was executed with operational measures under the purview of NYCDOT rather than initiating a costly and time consuming capital reconstruction project which would need to be effectuated by NYC’s Department of Design and Construction. The bicycle path in the project is separated from moving vehicles by an eight-foot buffer and a parking lane, and from turning vehicles by discrete signal phases. At intersections, there are pedestrian refuge islands and turn bays where needed. The project uses pavement markings, signs, traffic signals and raised concrete islands to create a unique, safe and enjoyable street (see Figure 2). We are delighted that the ITE’s Transportation Planning Council has chosen this project for its 2008 Best Program award. The rest of this paper outlines the details of the project in accordance with the award’s criteria: originality, quality, significance, comprehensiveness and transferability." @default.
